In 1988, New Zealand was riding the wave of 80s pop culture, and at the forefront was Rikki Morris. 'Nobody Else' captured the hearts of Kiwis, making it one of the biggest hits of the era, and a song that still resonates with audiences today. Produced by Rikki's late brother Ian Morris, 'Nobody Else' topped the NZ charts in October 1988.

In 1991 Rikki's song 'Heartbroke' won the APRA Silver Scroll award for the best New Zealand song of the year, and in 1996 he released a solo album, Everest, produced by Eddie Rayner of Split Enz. Then life got in the way.

Rikki’s album release continues a fruitful year for the singer-songwriter. In March he featured at the three Sounds Series festivals alongside The Human League and Go West, and Rikki will also be part of the upcoming Th’Dudes reunion.
